My pins are never aligned with my string or arrow, could be hand torque, form lots of things. As long as your getting good arrow flight it shouldnt matter. IfI were you I would try dialing in at 40 yards and then shooting at 20. Ive noticed sometimes if Im a little left or right at 20 it really shows up at 40 yards. If thats not it you could need to adjust your form. Any flaw in your form will really show up at longer distances.

I am having the same problem as you.

My plans are to start over. Center tune the rest, then shoot through paper and see what is happening.

Good Luck!

I said it before andI will say it again.Your centershot seems to be off,the pictures you posted and all the following info you have given are leading me to believe it more and more.


Sure,there are many other things from contact,spine and torque that will make the problem worse.


I know you said you weren't able to comprehend the linkI posted last time but I will give it to you again and maybe if you are wanting to learn how to tune,you might want to give some of these items a try.


What do you have to lose?;)

What are you needing the shop to do? The centershot is a simple fix(usually).You just move your rest in or out.

Yep, I think TFOX is on to it. Reset your center shot. Then go to one of the many tuning methods (paper - a good starting point, walk back - probably best for your application, broadhead - my personal favorite...)

My link addresses bare shaft,paper,walk back,broadhead and group tuning.


No long explanations for each so if you need more detailed instructions just ask,there are MANY that are willing to help.

The easton tuning guide is a must read for someone starting out.It is filled with knowledge.Some of it more usefull than other.

Absolutely ! Reset your centershot , BUT FIRST if your using a shoot through prong style rest ,double check your knock alignment ,if one or 2 of your knock's is out just a bit it may be as simple as straightening your knock's, and that's a real easy fix, don't ever glue in your knock's if they're loose ,just buy new one's .
